Chinese security forces killed 28 “terrorists,” state media say, during a weeks-long search for those who carried out a deadly attack at a coal mine in the country’s ethnically divided Xinjiang region.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
The reports published Friday were the first official confirmation of the gruesome September 18 attack on the coal mine in Aksu prefecture, which officials said killed 16 people, including 5 policemen.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Following the attack, the assailants fled into the nearby mountains, prompting a massive manhunt that lasted 56 days and involved the assistance of around 10,000 people, according to local officials.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Security forces eventually “busted” the alleged terrorist gang, according to the Xinhua news agency, killing 28 of its members. One other member was arrested, it added.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
The group was operating “under the direct command of an overseas extremist organization” and was headed by two people with apparently Uighur-sounding names, according to the Xinjiang regional government.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
China says it is fighting a foreign-backed separatist movement in Xinjiang, where the mostly Muslim, Turkic-speaking Uighurs have long complained of cultural and religious persecution.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
The region has seen a wave of deadly unrest in recent years. Many of the attacks initially focused on government or security targets, but have increasingly targeted innocent civilians.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Beijing has kept a tight lid on information about the Xinjiang violence, including the September coal mine attack, which was reported on by foreign media, but not discussed in state-run papers.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Radio Free Asia, which is funded by the U.S. government, reported that at least 50 people had died in the incident.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Exiled Uighur right groups, which regularly question China’s claims on violence in Xinjiang, have not responded to Beijing’s latest statements.<\/div>
